It looks like most people want non-human limbs next, so let me know in the comments to this post exactly what it is you're wanting from a set like that. Links to actual images are the most helpful, but just words are fine too if you can't find a good image.

Note that leaving suggestions for anything not related to non-human limbs won't be a lot of help, since by the time I get to whatever set you're talking about, I will forget what you asked for.

I'm moving on to Polearms for HeroMachine 3. Please make any polearm item requests in the comments below, and I'll see what I can do. As usual I'll be doing my best to port over all the 2.x items where relevant, so you can skip those. I'll be breaking each item up into at least three parts -- complete item, head, and shaft.

Finally, a few tips for making these requests to make sure you're not wasting your time.

1. While you're free to request anything you like, any non-Polearm suggestions will likely be in vain, as I won't be working on any other sets and by the time I do, I'll have forgotten about this thread. So stay focused on Polearms for the best results.
2. Requests which have a link to a specific image on the web somewhere are the most helpful. It's just a lot easier for me to click a link and BAM there's the item you want.
3. Please take a few moments to make sure the items you post are something you'd actually want to use, and which you think a fair number of people would also find useful. Spamming in three dozen links to stuff that's either already been suggested, or already exists in 2.x, or which is just kind of silly (a big stick with the Pillsbury Dough Boy hanging from it!) are kind of wasting your time and mine.

I don't want to inhibit your enthusiasm at all, so please feel free to request at will. But I do want to make sure I've done my best to help you understand the most effective way to getting your requests turned into actual items, so you don't end up feeling I've wasted your time.

Thanks everyone!

By a narrow margin, it looks like Blunts have beaten Firearms, so I'll be working on that next. Then I'll go immediately into Firearms, as I do think that's a glaring omission.

Feel free to post specific Blunt requests. Next week I'll do the same for Firearms but for now, please keep it to hand-held blunt-trauma weapons. Comments with links to an actual image of the requested item will get preferential treatment because, let's be honest, I'm lazy.

Edited To Add: Guys, as usual, all items (or close to it) from 2.5 will be included, so you can lay off those.

I'm going to start on hairstyles for HeroMachine 3 later today, but as you all have seen, I'm not great with hair. Probably a result of having been bald since I was seventeen, more or less. Anyway, if you have particular styles you want, or sites that feature the same, by all means let me know in comments.

Thanks in advance!

I'm going to start working on Headgear today, so let me know any specific requests you have in the comments. If you've made suggestions about Headgear items before in other posts, please re-submit them here if you don't mind; it's hard to go back through the old stuff and pick out onesie-twosie requests.

And yes, I'll be including every current HeroMachine 2 Headgear item, so you can skip those.

HM3's Headgear slot will include at least sets for Standard, Helmets, Masks, and Glasses. If you think of other big groups of headgear-related items that deserve to have their own set, let me know that too.
